Traveller Tips

The Belmond British Pullman travels year-round to a wide variety of destinations.

Departure stations include London Victoria, Truro and Penzance.

Can you guarantee a table for two?

Tables for two are limited. We are happy to take your request, however this is not a guarantee and there is a chance that you will share a table for four with another couple.

When will we receive our confirmed itinerary and travel documents?

Your travel documents and itinerary will be sent to you by post once we have received confirmed timings from Network Rail (approximately 5 to 7 days prior to departure).

Can we travel overnight?

No. The train does not have sleeping compartments. However, we do offer weekend journeys.

Are all our meals and drinks included?

While you are on board your meals and drinks, as described in the itinerary, are included. A selected range of alternative alcoholic drinks are also available for purchase.

Can you cater for special dietary requirements such as vegetarian?

Yes. If notified at the time of booking, we will do our best to comply with any dietary requirements. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide meals requiring strict religious observance in preparation.

Can people with disabilities travel on the train?

We are able to accommodate passengers with slight walking difficulties. However, we recommend they are accompanied by a carer. We regret that our carriages cannot be boarded on wheelchair. Staff are able to assist passengers to their seats and folding wheelchairs can be stored during the journey.

Some journeys are not suitable for people with disabilities. Should you have any special requirements please contact your nearest reservations office.

Can children travel on board?

Journeys are planned to maximise the enjoyment of the scenery while fine food, champagne and wine are served at your table. We have a superb selection of journeys for families. Families will be seated in a designated area of the trains.
